Video Proof: Bush Was Warned About Levees

promoted by BooMan, with minor edits:

Not only did I just watch the video described below on Tweety’s show but then had to listen to he and Kate O’Bierne never use the “L” word while watching him lie twice as they replayed the video and his denial afterwards about knowledge of the levees situation. Of course the “I” word was never used while they gave Bush cover, instead of coverage of the situation.

As I said before, Impeach not only this bastard from the Oval office but Impeach his sidekick Darth Cheney as well, a man with historically low poll numbers that truly doesn’t deserve to be in charge of dog catching, let alone the Presidency.

Katrina Video”

In dramatic and sometimes agonizing terms, federal disaster officials warned President Bush and his homeland security chief before Hurricane Katrina struck that the storm could breach levees, put lives at risk in New Orleans’ Superdome and overwhelm rescuers, according to confidential video footage.

Bush didn’t ask a single question during the final briefing before Katrina struck on Aug. 29, but he assured soon-to-be-battered state officials: “We are fully prepared.” The footage — along with seven days of transcripts of briefings obtained by The Associated Press — show in excruciating detail that while federal officials anticipated the tragedy that unfolded in New Orleans and elsewhere along the Gulf Coast, they were fatally slow to realize they had not mustered enough resources to deal with the unprecedented disaster.

If Bush thinks he’ll get any bounce from the Afghanistan visit and India PR stop, he can think again. He’ll be lucky if he hasn’t dropped another 5 points by the time his plane lands. How much more are we supposed to take before we take to the streets screaming for this man’s job? I’m beyond ready for him to be frogmarched right out of power immediately.
